"Sierra, what we have between us stops today. She's back," he looked at me calmly. “The woman at the restaurant is Cassie?” I pretended to be clueless. I didn't want divorce. “Yes and she’s back, you know what that means right?” He looked at me seeking confirmation but I played dumbfounded. “What happens to us, what we’ve built?” “There’s no us Sierra, when are you going to get that through your head, I’ve never lied to you about my feelings for Cassie,” he said still no emotion in his eyes. “But you married me, I’m your wife now,” I muttered in a low tone, as much as I wanted to shout I still was in a lot of pain. Son of the richest family in the city, Damian made his name on his own as one of the most successful lawyers, instead of taking over his father's business. He is the dream lover: rich, dominant, protective, loyal —IF he loves you, Sierra was unfortunate as she was not the one he loved. ******* After Damian ended their marriage for his ex, Cassie, Sierra moved to Texas to start anew. Only for her to return five years later as a rich, successful woman and a mother of triplets. The triplets looked exactly like Damian. Damian’s dormant heart beat again after seeing her, he wanted a second chance; was Sierra willing to forgive him after what he made her go through? Was she willing to throw the cold aura she built around herself, will he be able to win her heart again now that secrets left buried were hatched and most importantly was Cassie going to lose Damian without a fight? The answer is no. How will Damian and Sierra overcome it? Or will they ever?

Are you ready to play?”“What do you want?” I gathered the courage to ask, I didn't want to sound like I was intimidated.“Wow, this is going to be so much fun. I love your courage,” he said. I stood up from the sofa.“Listen, I don't know who you are, but it's crazy of you to think I'll be scared of you. Stop throwing empty threats and leave me alone because this is not funny anymore.” I don't know where I got the courage to say this, but I was fed up. I was not going to live in fear.“Watch your tongue, darling, if I were you, I would lower my voice for my children's sake, their lives could be endangered,” he threatened and started laughing. I didn't respond, as my heart started beating. If this person knew that I had kids, then it was easy to use that against me.“That's what I thought. Talk to you soon, beautiful.”“Who—what do you want? Is it money? Just say it, please
~DAMIAN~“What do you mean, Bruce?”“I won't let you deny it, you love her, you...”“I don’t know Bruce, I’m as confused as you, but love is a strong word.” I didn’t want to seem desperate.
~DAMIAN~I dragged Cassie out of the restaurant because I didn't want us to argue in front of people.“You're hurting me,” she struggled, but I only tightened my grip. "Damian, if you don't let me go, I'll scream,” she threatened, and luckily we were already outside, knowing Cassie, I knew she was capable of that.“Why did you come here?” I asked as we reached my car. My eyes looked around with hopes of seeing Sierra, but I was disappointed as I didn't see her. I knew it was difficult to get to her again.“You left me in your b
“Cassie, what are you doing here?” Damian asked her, and I cleared my throat because I was not going to argue with Cassie, not over Damian. “Excuse me? Is that all you're going to say, Damian? What am I doing here?” She looked at him. I didn't want them to cause a scandal, I didn't like unnecessary attention. “Sierra,” Damian said, taking my hands into his. I didn't understand what he was doing, so I didn't react. “As I was saying, I want you ba...” “Don't you dare say it!” Cassie yelled. Damian didn't look bothered, but I was. I had a reputation, and this could ruin it.
~SIERRA~“Damian, how—what are you doing here?”“That's not important, are you coming or must I come in?” He didn't sound like he was joking, and one thing I remember about Damian is that he never joked. “Your house is quite big and impressive, now should I come in or you…”“I'm coming, wait there,” I said and hung up. I couldn't let him come in, he might come across my kids, and I didn't want that. I ran out of the dining room and headed outside.
“Sierra, welcome back. I can already see the two of us getting along. Love C.” I reread it as I didn't understand what it meant, but still rereading it didn't help. I thought of a name that starts with C, but I couldn't figure it out.“Could it be Damian? Why will he say, ‘getting along,’ with how I ended the call in his ear?” I stood up and paced around. I couldn't figure this message out.“Wait...Cassie, yes, her name starts with C,” I said out loud. “Of course, I can't believe I let it get to me.” I face-slapped and took my phone from the bed. I dialed the detective's number.“Ms. Reid,” he picked on the first ring, “I was about to call you.”“Good, what did you want to tell me?”"No, you can go first.”“There is a woman named Cassie, I will send you all the details, I want you to find out everything about her.” If she was trying to play a game with me, then who am I to stop her?“Okay, you just need to send me her picture and any relevant information, and I will have one of my men
“Excuse me, who's this?” I sounded calm and pretended to be clueless.“I know you recognize my voice, Sierra, why are you acting as if you don't know me?” He sounded irritated, I could tell from his voice. I held the speaker so he could not hear me as I spoke to Lana. I asked her to finish up and make sure the kids slept. I walked out of the room and headed to the kitchen.“You dialed the wrong number,” I said and attempted to hang up, but his pleading stopped me.“Please hear me out.” I rolled my eyes. I wanted to know what he wanted, so I stayed on the line.
“Who is Atlas?”I looked at Nana, who now covered her mouth with her hands, regretfully.“It's one of the guards, yes, he rarely laughs, it surprises me that he laughed today,” I lied, but she didn't buy it.“That's not true, why would you care about a guard? Do you have another..”“That's the truth, Ava, why would I lie to you?” I sidestepped. I didn't want her to think too much about it; she might end up figuring it out.“If you say so, I can'
~SIERRA~“That's funny, I just don't understand why he's acting like this when he's the one who divorced me. I hope he's not trying to dump Cassie like he did with me.”“Unfortunately he is, I know Damian too well, and breaking hearts is one of his hobbies,” Lily said. I was on a call with her, and she was telling me about Damian looking for my address.“I'm glad I used my Houston address, I don't know how I could handle Damian showing up.”“I wouldn't relax if I were you, Damian is determined, I know him well, he never gives up,” she warned, and she was right, Damian was not one to give up easily.“You're right, I guess it's time I start confusing him,” I said, sipping on my glass of wine."Yes, you better, but you still haven't told me the reason you did not come to the office today.”“Ingrid was not feeling well, I had to stay back and watch over her, and besides, I work from home, so I can get work done here in my home.”“I agree. With the way you built yourself in just five years
